I tried my whole life to be
Perfect in your memory
And I tried not to see
That you still feel nothing for me

I tried my whole life to be someone that you would love
I tried my whole life just to be someone that you would love

I can't make myself believe
The shield I lived under conquered me
And your eyes look at me
And I can't see nothing I'd once seen

I tried my whole life to be someone that you would love
I tried my whole life just to be someone that you would love

You take me down
You don't give up
I don't know why but I still want your love
You take me down
You don't give up
I don't know why but I still want your love
You take me down
You don't give up
I don't know why but I still want your love
But I still want your love

I tried my whole life to be someone that you would love
I tried my whole life just to be someone that you would love
